Water During The Winter Pays Off Next Spring

Winter Watering Helps Preserve Lawns

As we look ahead to colder temperatures and grass in your lawn that will go dormant until Spring, now is a good time to reach out to your customers with recommendations on fertilization and watering.

There is still time to fertilize and provide lawns with the nutrients to prepare for dormancy. Graff’s Turf fertilizer blend, available in 40 pound bags (covering 8,000 sq. ft.), has everything a lawn needs for the season.

Winter watering is rarely discussed, but can make a dramatic impact on the health of your lawn when the weather warms next year. An article published on-line by Colorado Springs Utilities offers a helpful checklist for homeowners (and commercial property owners) regarding both fertilization and watering.

It is most critical to water in March and April when the new roots are forming.

The dehydration that many lawns suffer during the winter is harmful to the root system, and strong, healthy roots are needed to produce healthy plants. This is especially true of newly installed sod, where roots are still establishing.

Synthetic Turf Provides Reliable Surface

A Safe Playing Surface For Football Practice

We’ve enjoyed a long relationship with Colorado State University, particularly as a turfgrass research partner. So it was a pleasure to help with the school’s football practice facilities.

Synthetic turf, supplied and installed by SYNLawn, replaced natural grass in front of blocking dummies. As you can see, the natural grass could not stand up to the demand that the offensive lineman were putting on it, so this synthetic surface will provide a safer and more reliable solution.
